Broker's Comments

Varne yachts are known for handling heavy weather easily, aided by the deep "v" bow and attract rave reviews for their seaworthiness.

Accommodation for a boat of this size is generous. The forward cabin is a large storage area, but there are still five berths. The current owner is living aboard for proximity to his workplace.

Lighting has been upgraded to LEDs and the navigation equipment all looks to be working. The engine, uprated from the original, started instantly and ran smoothly.

This is a classic 70s boat that cries out to be sailed, and has sails aplenty aboard.
